The couple made several stops to remove the snake but could not find it.

Are they nuts? Make several stops but dont get out of the car and wait for help. Are they nuts? You dont play hide and seek with a cobra. They play by their own rules.

Mozambique Spitting Cobra (Naja mossambica) slate to olive grey, olive or tawny brown above, with some or all scales black-edging. Below, salmon pink to yellowish, with black bars across the neck and ventral’s speckled or edged with brown or black; young specimens sometimes have pink or yellow bars on the throat. This species is probably the most common cobra of the savanna regions. This cobra's diet mainly consists of amphibians, other snakes, birds, eggs, small mammals, and even insects occasionally. When confronted at close quarters this snake can rear up to as much as two-thirds of its length, spread its long narrow hood and will readily "spit" in defense, usually from a reared-up position. The spitting cobra does not often actually bite despite its aggressive behavior. The average length of adults is between 900mm - 1,050mm.The eggs average 10 to 22 in number, hatchlings measure 230-250mm

NEW CASTLE, Pa. - A 4-foot-long alligator is accused of starting a fire at an abandoned school in western Pennsylvania.

North Beaver Township officials say the owner of the former elementary school that burned near New Castle, about 40 miles northwest of Pittsburgh, was living with a menagerie of animals in the building. That included an alligator, about 70 rabbits and unspecified "aquatic animals."

OK-the school owner happens to own a menagerie of animals. Can you imagine how that address might be noted in the police records? "Owner, plus alligator and other animals reside in former school building. Always contact SPCA for backup on calls to this address."

Kangaroo hops into bed with startled Aussie family Module bodyMon Mar 9, 2:48 AMSYDNEY (AFP) - A startled Swiss immigrant and his family huddled under their blankets as a kangaroo bounced on top of them after bursting through a bedroom window, Australian media reported Monday.

"My initial thought when I was half awake was: it's a lunatic ninja coming through the window," Beat Ettlin told the national AAP news agency. "It seems about as likely as a kangaroo breaking in."

The close encounter with the hopping marsupial began when Ettlin and his family were awoken early Sunday morning by their pet dog barking in the garden.

The chimp is bored seeing the same walls. The pavilion needs excitement and the only action is what the chimp plans on doing. Could also be a need for privacy from zoo visitors. Animal psychology at work.
